While growing up, one of my mom’s sartorial staples was her gray Lesportsac bag that usually made a cameo when we traveled, because it was big enough to house all of our passports and extras. When the gray bag came out, it usually meant we were going on a trip or mom was going away for a bit.
Fast forward to my adulthood and this iconic American bag brand is still a part of my adventures. But instead of solid colors, Lesportsac is collaborating with mega store Dylan’s Candy Bar for a collection of bags filled with fun patterns and playful styles.
I saw a preview of this incredible line during LuckyFABB and let’s just say that I over indulged with a lot of their goodies. See, the gals hosted a ‘milkshake bar’ and candy display that pleased even the sweetest palates. Soon after I arrived and devoured half a milkshake and a bag of gummies, the day was coined ‘Fat Girl Friday.’ The space was wilder than Willy Wonka’s imagination – and no oompa loompas were present.
Team Lesportsac consisted of Paula, Pem and Victoria. They patiently listened through all of my ramblings, which ranged from ‘I want to get to know the brand better’ to even more candid conversations of life, TV, snacks, New York and of course relationship quandaries.
Keep an eye open for this collaboration and be sure to come back and see what surprises we come up with for y’alls, my beloved readers. You may end up toting around a weekender and making one of these bags a star of your own adventures – just like my mom did back in the 1980s.

Hopefully my dentist doesn’t see this, and perhaps the reason why I may need a root canal in the future
Paula, Victoria, Yours Truly, Ashley from Golden Divine, Pem and Amy from Amy’s Vintage. This was the absolute highlight of my second day at LuckyFABB! What a treat that we spent the afternoon together.
